If you mean GOPe republican then I agree...If you are carping go somewhere else
***************
Although my comment was directed primarily at the GOPe, because they are in charge, the Republican Party as a whole is certainly not blameless. It is the base that has allowed the establishment to run amok like it has election after election when it should have been held accountable. Government spending and debt keep rising, government keeps growing larger, and our freedoms keep shrinking under Republican majorities in congress. These are not conservative principles, and by and large the current incarnation of the Republican Party is not really conservative in my opinion.
We desperately need new solutions and a new direction in the party. I think Trump-Pence can start the process of reorienting the party’s priorities and principles. That’s just my opinion.
As for your suggestion that I go somewhere else just because my thoughts may differ from yours, may I remind you that I’ve been on FR a lot longer than you have and I have been contributing comments and making financial contributions the entire time. I don’t kowtow to thought police and will post where ever and when ever it pleases me.
My comment about carping is in regards to the current nominee. Jim has made it very clear....FR is not a democracy nor necessarily a free speech arena.
Trump is the nominee. The voters have voted. His policies are ones I can easily get behind....How about you?
